Just as they were interrogating the captives …
Not far away, a simple and crude temporary camp was set up here. In a slightly larger tent, two people were arguing endlessly.
"Our people have been discovered. I think we should just kill them. With our strength, we can block them all and prevent them from leaking our information," a chubby man said.
"Li Jian, I know we're short on supplies, but if we waste time because of this, we'll be dead for sure. I told you not to alert the enemy. We're already in the outer circle of Flower Lake City. It's very likely that they'll send people here to ambush us.
A young man with a gloomy face said.
"Alright, I got it. Besides, this failure is all your old man's fault. We were about to succeed, but in the end, we provoked someone we shouldn't have provoked, causing all our efforts to go to waste. So far, only seven countries have failed. Fortunately, we aren't the worst. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to raise my head." The fatty named Li Jian complained.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. Now that things have come to this, we have less than two days at most before the other party realizes what's going on. I already said that we should head over and not waste any more time." The young man paced back and forth in the tent.
"No, we can't expose our whereabouts. We need a batch of supplies to pacify the people below. Otherwise, what's the use of us?" Li Jian insisted.
After arguing for half a night, the young man finally convinced the other party. They didn't know what kind of agreement they came to. At dawn, they hurriedly packed up the camp and headed towards Flower Lake City.
As for the two scouts, since they warned them of danger, they would take a detour first. They would deal with them when they returned. They didn't have much time.
After a night of rest, the army's spirits were much better. After being pacified by the young man, everyone's uneasiness was suppressed. They followed behind the young man and continued forward.
In Elder Sun's village, everyone was on high alert. They heard from the two scouts that the rebel army was nearby and could come here at any time.
However, everyone spent the day nervously without any movement. There were no rebels either. The young man who was patrolling outside brought them good news.
Far away, they found that many people had camped there yesterday, but there was no one there now. Looking at the messy footsteps on the ground, they didn't know why the other party had left in such a hurry.
However, some people suggested that they go to Huacheng Lake to send a warning and report the whereabouts of these traitors as soon as possible so that the army can wipe them out.
That night, Old Sun brought Shi Lei and a few other youngsters along with him. As for the others, they had already moved to the mountains. They would wait until the situation calmed down.
That captive was killed by everyone. The other captive was tied up and brought along with them. They were afraid that the other party had other ways to inform the army and bring revenge.
After traveling for a day and a night, they arrived at the lakeside where Shi Lei had fainted.
Elder Sun had already been carried on Shi Lei's back. At this time, everyone was exhausted and couldn't move forward.
"Everyone, let's rest here for the night. We will enter the city tomorrow." Old Sun ordered Shi Lei to put him down and arranged for everyone to rest.
Hearing this, everyone hurriedly sat down. Even the captive didn't care about his manners and laid down. Along the way, he had almost lost half of his life.
However, Shi Lei was still full of energy, making everyone envious.
The night passed. Early the next morning, Old Sun woke everyone up and took the captive who was tied to the tree. Just as they were about to set off, they saw a figure in front of them with smoke and dust. It seemed like something was rushing in their direction.
"Everyone, be careful." Without Old Sun's warning, everyone was already on guard. They nervously held the wooden sticks in their hands. This was their most powerful weapon.
However, there was a bone blade stuck in Shi Lei's body. It was still shining in the sun.
They saw a figure running quickly along the lakeside. His face was full of panic. From time to time, he would look back as if there was an enemy chasing after him. He was escaping in a sorry state.
"General Kang, save me." A shrill cry came from the captive's mouth. The person next to him directly kicked him to the ground and took out a piece of rag to cover his mouth. The captive was still crying.
However, he still succeeded in attracting General Kang's attention. However, he only took a glance and found that it was just a group of ordinary people. There was also a scout who seemed to be him.
However, he did not care. His figure showed no signs of slowing down.
Seeing his figure pass by them, Old Sun and the others' hearts fell because they had already recognized who he was. It was Kang Wei's youngest son, Kang Tian.
He was also the current leader of the rebel army. They did not expect to see him here.
However, the next moment, their hearts were raised again.
This was because his figure had stopped. It was not because he wanted to save his subordinate, but because a figure was blocking him. That person was Shi Lei.
"Kid, I don't care who you are. Get out of my way." Kang Tian said with a threatening face. If it were not for the fact that he could not see through the other party, he would have slapped him to death.
Shi Lei did not speak. He only felt that there was a familiar aura on the other party. It seemed that someone had shown it to him before. More importantly, he was very disgusted by this aura.
Moreover, when the aura appeared, a beautiful figure vaguely flashed in his mind. There was also a long spear flashing with lightning. There seemed to be a certain connection between the two.
This made him, who was eager to find his memories, subconsciously block the other party. He wanted to feel the aura more and see if he could remember more things.
"You are that mysterious person. The Liu family has really planned this well. They even have people lying in ambush here." Kang Tian felt that the other party might have something to hide his aura.
If he wanted to escape successfully, he had to rush over. He did not expect that damn fatty to be so useless. He even said that everything was under his control.
This time, their plan was seen through by the Liu family woman. It could be said that they were completely wiped out. Even Kang Tian himself suffered serious injuries. He only found a chance to escape after tricking the fatty.
However, he knew that the fatty would not be able to hold on for long. The Liu family woman's power had increased greatly. She was simply a monster.
Seeing that the other party ignored him and only looked at him with a mysterious gaze, Kang Tian could not waste any more time. He directly threw a palm at the other party. As he threw his fist, there was a gust of wind. The momentum was shocking.
He had lost his weapon. Otherwise, he would have chopped the other party into pieces. However, he wanted to defeat the other party quickly. Even if there was a gap, he had to rush over.
It was not that he did not want to go around, but the other party's speed was faster than his.
Shi Lei felt that the other party was not a big threat. Facing the other party's attack, he did not dodge. Instead, he threw a palm at the other party.
With a bang, the two of them separated from each other, and Shi Lei was sent flying several steps away.
"This person is at the fourth rank. If it wasn't for my hand, I would have seriously injured him." Kang Tian looked at the other party and only rubbed his hand. He continued to block in front of him.
Kang Tian continued to press forward, wanting to defeat the other party with continuous attacks.
With two bangs, Shi Lei was again pushed back a few steps. At the same time, he felt the blood in his body fluctuating.
Kang Tian sneered and directly shot forward. As fast as lightning, he grabbed Shi Lei's shoulder.
Seeing this, Shi Lei moved to the side. He lowered his right hand and hit the other party's wrist. After knowing that his strength was not as good as the other party, needless to say, he would not go head to head with the other party.
Kang Tian's wrist was directly hit, and a numb feeling came directly from his arm. He borrowed the opponent's strength and directly turned a small half circle. His other hand was upside down, and he swung forward, directly hitting Shi Lei's shoulder.
Shi Lei only felt pain in his shoulder. The impact made his chest and back hurt. He was directly sent flying.
However, Shi Lei's reaction was very fast. Just as his body was in the air, his left leg bent and hooked the other party's lower leg. The other party could not help but stagger forward. Shi Lei's other leg directly hit the other party's chest.
In the eyes of Old Sun and the others, the two of them were sent flying as soon as they came into contact. It seemed that neither of them had the upper hand. This made their eyes pop out. They did not expect Shi Lei to be so strong. He was actually on par with Kang Tian.
Although the two of them separated again, Kang Tian directly went around the other side and flew forward. He felt that the other party would definitely defend himself after taking his attack.
He would definitely not expect him to stop playing with him. He would definitely not be able to react in a short time.
However, just as he moved, he saw Shi Lei in front of him again as if nothing had happened.
"Damn it, so difficult to deal with." He could not delay any longer. Who knew when the demoness would catch up.
Thinking of this, Kang Tian did not care how the other party attacked. He did not defend himself. Even if he was injured, he had to injure the other party.
He was a rank 5. His defense was very difficult for the other party to break through, even if he was injured now.
Sure enough, although his attack was dodged by the other party and hit his left arm, it was the same as the previous kick. He only felt a slight pain and it did not affect him too much.
As long as he protected his vitals, the other party would not be able to hurt him in a short time.
Kang Tian took a few punches before he found an opportunity to punch the other party's stomach. Shi Lei was directly sent flying again.
This time, he used all his strength. Although his face was hit by the other party and immediately swelled up, the other party would be seriously injured if not dead.
At this time, the captive also looked defeated. He knew that General Kang was not here to save him. Looking at the other party's anxious look, he must have failed.
However, just as he was about to move, he saw a figure appear in front of him again.
His face showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost. The young man blocked in front of him again. Although his face was a little pale and his breathing was a little chaotic, he was not injured at all.
He did not show mercy. Even if someone of the same rank was hit, they would have to adjust a little. This little bit of time was enough for him to rush over.
However, he did not expect the other party to block in front of him again.
Shi Lei did not think too much. Although he was not as strong as the other party, the other party's attacks would at most cause his blood and Qi to fluctuate. He only needed to take a deep breath and it would immediately disappear.
He had to get the other party's things. Of course, he would not let the other party go.
Kang Tian's punches were fierce and majestic. Shi Lei's body was fleeting and his movements were exquisite. However, even with exquisite movements, he still had to come into contact with the other party.
Under the worried eyes of Old Sun and the others, Shi Lei would be sent flying every time. However, in the next moment, he would immediately block in front of the other party.
Although Kang Tian did not receive any damage, his steps were indeed blocked by Shi Lei.
The two of them exchanged blows for a while, and found that Shi Lei's attacks were all aimed at his chest. It was as if there was something there that attracted him.
Kang Tian's heart moved. While he sent the other party flying again, he took out a black token from his bosom.
When he took it out, the other party's eyes were fixed on it. Kang Tian threw it in the opposite direction. Shi Lei directly rushed in the direction of the token, not asking Kang Tian any more.
Kang Tian laughed. He had just found that the other party's mental state was a little strange. He had finally shaken him off. He really did not know why the other party was reluctant to part with that stupid token.
It was just a qualification that the higher-ups gave him to prove that he was one of them. However, now that they had all failed, and his own life was in danger, he hated them more than anything.
"It's a little too early for you to be happy." A pleasant female voice came from behind.
Kang Tian's body suddenly stiffened. He turned around with difficulty and saw a familiar figure appear in front of him.
"You, how did you catch up so quickly? Where's Li Jian? "Kang Tian's voice was trembling, like a mouse that had seen a cat.
One of them was wearing a pink shirt and a pair of tight pants, which outlined her impressive figure. Her face was very fresh and clean, and she looked like a lotus flower that had just emerged from the water.
She was the famous Miss Yi Le, a genius of the Liu family. In the entire Pure Moon Nation, there was no one who did not know her. She was the leader of the new generation, and Flower Lake City was her family's territory.
Years of fighting made Yi Le's originally round little face become a little thin. Coupled with her faint willowy eyebrows, she looked even more valiant and formidable.
Now, she was looking at Kang Tian with a smile on her face. She was playing with the dagger in her hand, and a little bit of cold light was reflected from the dagger.
"What do you think? Since I'm here, where else can he be? He was very concerned about you before he died." Her white hands flashed back and forth, and she directly put away the dagger.
Kang Tian's figure flashed, and he ran to the side. Beside him was a wide lake, and he wanted to use the water to escape.
Just now, he and Li Jian were unable to do anything to her, let alone himself. His injuries were all thanks to her.
Now, he did not even have the courage to fight.
"Bang!"
Yi Le left a shadow on the spot, and when she appeared again, she was already beside Kang Tian. She directly kicked him back.
Seeing that Kang Tian still wanted to struggle, Yi Le's hand touched her waist, and a cold light appeared in the air. In the next moment, it directly pierced through Kang Tian's calf and nailed him to the ground.
Seeing that Kang Tian was still unwilling to give up and still wanted to take his weapon, a slender leg ruthlessly kicked his waist. Kang Tian spat out blood and was sent flying. Before he landed, he had already fainted.
Yi Le took out a black rope and tied Kang Tian up tightly, ensuring that he wouldn't be able to pull off any tricks.
Only then did she look at Shi Lei, who was holding a token, and elegantly walked over.
When she was five or six years old, she was taught a special cultivation method by a passing immortal. It seemed that she was the only one who could cultivate it.
In just a short twenty years, she had already become so strong. Everyone was saying that she would become an immortal in the future.
"Thank you for your help, Young Master. May I know your name?" Yi Le revealed a peach blossom-like smile.
However, Shi Lei was still looking at the token in his hand, as if she did not exist.
This made Yi Le feel a little awkward.
Fortunately, Elder Sun quickly walked over and bowed to Yi Le excitedly. "General Yi, he is a little out of it now, so he doesn't like to talk. He also doesn't care about the situation in the outside world. Please don't blame him."
The leader who came out to eliminate the rebels was Yi Le. Although they had not seen her before, they knew that she was armed all year round. Especially the few young people beside her, they were so excited that they could not speak.
"Oh, so that's the case." To be honest, no matter who it was, they would be stunned the first time they saw her. After all, such a strong and beautiful person was rare. Seeing that the other party ignored them, they were naturally unhappy.
However, after knowing the other party's condition, some of the grudges in their hearts disappeared.
"Then how did he become like this? Do you know?" Yi Le was naturally very curious about such a person.
"I only met him by chance." Elder Sun's face was a little red. He really did not know anything about him.
Then, he simply told her everything that happened when he met him.
In the end, he brought the captives back and let her make the decision.
Yi Le listened with a smile. Before she could say anything, a shout came from afar.
"General Yi."
At this time, the ground beneath their feet shook. A large group of people quickly rushed over from afar. These were Yi Le's subordinates. They had only just arrived.
"General Yi, I came late. Please punish me." A tall young man quickly got off his horse and cupped his hands to Yi Le.
"It doesn't matter. You're not too late. Just in time to take these traitors back. This battle will completely annihilate the enemy and end the war in one fell swoop. When we return, I will give you a reward." Yi Le waved his hand and pulled the two unconscious people over.
"Yes." The young man quickly ordered his men to put the two unconscious people on the carriage.
"I don't know what plans Elder Sun and your people have next. You have some merit this time. Why don't you come back with us to receive some rewards before going back?" He glanced at Shi Lei, who was at the side. His eyes were rolling as if he was calculating something.
"How can I refuse General Yi's invitation? I will have to trouble General Yi." Elder Sun, who originally wanted to refuse, swallowed the words he wanted to say and directly agreed when he heard that there was merit to be received. It meant that there would be a lot of rewards.
